As a university, we advance our understanding of climate change and how it impacts people and the planet, including among many other research areas, forests, trees, and communities.
At UBC, there are approximately 8,000 planted trees and over 10,000 native trees in their natural settings. UBC encourages tree retention, or conservation through relocation on campus, whenever possible. We work with students, faculty, landscape architects, architects, developers, arborists and landscape technologists to protect UBC’s forested areas.
